Combine the baking chips and sweetened condensed milk in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high for 1 minute. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted. Heat in increments of 10 seconds if additional heating is needed.

Lift the parchment paper and fudge out of the pan. Slice the fudge into 1-1/2 to 2 inch pieces.
Place white chocolate in a heatproof bowl and set over a pot of barely simmering water. Stir continuously until chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
